Manages to carry you, we hear, in cars (6)

'cars' is the definition.
(coupe is a kind of car)

'manages to carry you' is the wordplay.
'manages' becomes 'copes' ('cope' can be a synonym of 'manage').
'to carry' indicates putting letters inside.
'you' becomes 'u' (homophones).
'copes' going around 'u' is 'COUPES'.

'we hear in' is the link.
This may not be correct. Some or all of it may be part of another bit of the clue.
